While *11 who have an eye for tnaxity Vndeinn or At iinst crltidne the ordlniuy pverhnul rwiMruitinn of dertrtc trolley linen, the trolley railroad people tbcmnelven are aware of the drawlwrk cnnxtltntcd by Ita high cost and the neeoartty tor a virtual duplication of the work where a double track l* Inrtalled. To aid In the objections to overhead coni electric railroads a* mutomarlly installed John C. Henry of Denver has devised a form of construction which meets the opposition half way by dispensing with onehalf of the poles nod wires commonly used. Bis scheme comprehend” a system of double track rlectrtc railway, with the can traveling in ojipoalte directions and making contact against the sides of a single trolley wire which in this case is suspended between I hi- dontile tracks from span wires at the usual height. The poles. Instead of being located opposite each other, are staggered and occupy diagonal positions on opjioslte sides of the street, so that one-half of the nmuber ordinarily used may he dispenwd with and the strain on the remainder greatly reduced. In the construction tl>c span wire strain la exerted in two directions on cad^pole— namely, laterally and In a Une parallel with the track, the latter ‘ * ‘

any, *00 foct apart on opposite sides of the street, 60 feet between the curbs, the lateral strain on the pole Is only one-half as modi as the pull at right angles thereto— parallel with the track—and the lateral pull Is a balanced one. The fact that but one trolley wire Is used for both tracks Is

trolley pole, would carry a fixed arm or man, rising from the roof, from which coUrrtlng arms, mounted on the top of this upright, will swing out on either side far enough to engage side contact with the conductor wire. Care on adjoining tracks use different vertical aides of the common central wire. —• Providence

"In answer to your Inquiry, I write to inform you that the well known passage In the fourth canto of 'Child.- Harold.' 'there let him lay.' ** no misprint. I have the original MS. in my posnunion, and tbs word and the fuU stop are as dear as can

Which was the stronger and better fighter was a disputed question until n burglar got into the bouse one night One at the sons, opening the front door wlth a latchkey late at night, found the intruder in the hall. They immediately clinched. The other brother, hearing the noise, rushed down stairs, and, not being able In tbe dark to distinguish a burglar from a worthy and honest citizen of London, proceeded to pound both men whom he ran against Meanwhile brother number one, thinking there were two burglars In the turned half of his attention to iw enemy, and tbe fight became desperate. The father, awakened by the uproar. . down stairs with a heavy walking stick. Then the fight was something to admire, but to avoid. When it was all over and the gas was lighted by tbe aged fencing master, it discovered that bo had whipped burglar, but his two" suns. Weekly.
